Wow! What an amazing first week back Year 1 have had. The children looked incredibly smart in their new uniforms and they came in beautifully, ready and motivated to begin their adventures in Year 1.
We started off the week with some lovely activities, getting to know one another and dived into some of our new topics.
In Religion, we focused on our mission statement and our school prayer, we discussed lots of ideas of how we can show happiness, peace and love at St Joseph’s and in our classrooms. The children had lots of kind and thoughtful ideas. We also talked about how prayer time is a special time between us and God.
In Maths, we began to sort objects into different groups concentrating on their shape, colour and different numbers. We also counted objects up to 10.
Miss Clarke and Miss Donnelly have been super impressed with how Year 1 have conducted themselves so far, with a positive attitude and a fantastic first week back!
We look forward to what the rest of the year brings and seeing the spectacular progress across the year. Well done Year 1!
